Persona 4 is coming to PlayStation 3 as a PS2 Classic on April 8, Atlus confirmed today on Twitter.

The 2008 JRPG will be a direct port of the original PS2 release, not the Vita’s 2012 Persona 4 Golden and its added content, priced at $9.99. Rumblings of this PS3 version were first heard earlier this week, starting with a sighting of the game’s ESRB listing.
